Defrosting
Use the "Microwave" operation mode to defrost frozen
fruit, vegetables, poultry, meat, fish and baked items.
Remove the frozen food from its packaging and place it
onto the wire rack in cookware suitable for microwave
use. Observe the notes on cookware suitable for
microwaves. ~ "Microwave" on page 17
Slide the wire rack in with the imprint "Microwave"
facing the appliance door and the outer rail facing
downwards.
Remove unused accessories from the cooking
compartment. This will allow you to achieve optimum
cooking results and save energy.
Recommended setting values
The times in the table are average values. They are
dependent on the quality, freezing temperature (-18 °C)
and composition of the food. Time ranges are indicated.
Set the shortest time first and then extend the time if
necessary. You can often achieve better results when
defrosting in several steps. These are indicated one
below the other in the table.
Tip: Items which were frozen flat or portioned defrost
faster than those frozen in a block.
Stir the food or turn it once or twice in between. Large
pieces of food should be turned several times.
Occasionally split the food or remove items which have
already defrosted from the cooking compartment.
Leave the defrosted food to rest for another 10 to 30
minutes in the appliance whilst it is switched off, so that
the temperature balances out.
Tip: If you have quantities other than those indicated in
the settings table, this basic rule will help: double the
quantity equates to roughly double the cooking time.
